Israel, goes back to the law of anti-Netanyahu News

ISRAEL never ceases to surprise you. The return to power of Benjamin Netanyahu in the elections of last Monday (the Likud first with 36 deputies, against-33 Blue and White) does not mean that Bibi will easily premier. And this is because of the 36 members of the Likud added to those of the allied parties only arrive at the altitude of 58 seats. Are 3 less than the majority of 121. And after a few hours of paralysis, post-vote, the political parties, the opponents of the right are organizing.

Today, Avigdor Lieberman, head of Yisrael Beiteinu, the party of jews of Russian origin, has announced that it will offer Benny Gantz as premier the head of the new government. Lieberman 2 years ago, had abandoned the post of Minister of Defence and Netanyahu, accusing him of having sold his policies to the demands of the extreme right and, above all, of the parties, the ultra-orthodox. Since then, with his partitino centrist and nationalist became the needle of the balance of israeli policy. Now its 7 members of parliament will count for a lot in the games to form the new government.

Lieberman has made another important choice: will support the law “anti-Netanyahu” that the deputies of the Blue and White will present to the Knesset. It is not a law addressed nominally only against Netanyahu, will be a general provision that makes clear that no citizen of israel can become premier if he is indicted and on trial. But this is precisely the case of Netanyahu, who will go on trial from march 17. And then everyone calls it “the law anti-Netanyahu”.

The proposal of Blue and White is quite sophisticated not to be decisive: the party asks that the rule enters in force only for the next parliamentary term, the 24th. In this legislature the measure, therefore, would not be valid: an israeli can be premier even if it is under process, it should leave only if convicted.

The crazing has a meaning: in this way Gantz could invite Netanyahu to join a national unity government. Becoming himself, Gantz, premier in the first phase, while the rival will face in the process. If the judges were to decide, then for the innocence of Netanyahu, the premier may return to the government in the second half of the term. The “relay” has already been set up in many israeli governments in the past.

The Likud and the parties of the right, of course, there are. Netanyahu for the first and all the heads of the parties and its allies denounce the fact that Gantz “wants to trample on the decisions of the people, wants to cancel the result of the election”. In their turn, have begun maneuvering to find those 3 members that are missing for the majority of 61 seats out of 120. Omar Yankelevich, Blue and White, has already announced that she will not be betrayed, even if some of the Likud has blackmailed with some audio secrets. Hunting "remained involved" he continues.
